Internationally acclaimed poet Anne Carson presents a lecture on forms of contempt in Homer's Odyssey, Moravia's Il Disprezzo, and Jean-Luc Godard's Le Mépris. (This lecture series was created in memory of former Academy of America Poets Board member Dorothy Gulbenkian Blaney by a gift from her estate.)

This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.
